As others already said, there is one.

Because this is functionally identical to what is used now (All you do
is to move the files) and does not remove these multilibs. However your
proposal is technically more complicated to implement.
I chose to go the easy way.

The key to improve this situation would be to remove the dependencies on
-Dmpc8260 from cpukit - Unfortunately, this is not possible, yet.
